| 20080282140 | EMBEDDED WEBSITE BANNER SYSTEM AND METHOD - A system and method for providing a website involve a novel way of porting a full website through an ad banner. A user viewing a website including the ad banner interacts with the ad banner. The ad banner then expands and the ported website is viewed in the expanded ad banner as covering over the first website. The user's perception does not include the experience of being redirected to another website. The method and system for providing this website are described herein. | 11-13-2008 |
| 20090076909 | VIDEO CHANNEL AD SYSTEM AND METHOD - A video channel ad for providing continuous video to a user is described herein. A plurality of thumbnails of various clips may be interacted with to provide various video clips associated with the relevant thumbnails. In maintaining a user's attention, the video plays continuously and transitions between states of the video channel ad are made in a gradual and smooth manner. | 03-19-2009 |
| 20090288021 | SYSTEM AND METHOD TO SUPPORT DYNAMIC WIDGET DISTRIBUTION - A process is proposed that enables a widget vendor or aggregator to continuously present widgets via a widget network to a user who previously grabbed and embedded a first widget presented by the vendor or aggregator. The user may initiate the browsing of the widget network from a user placement where the first widget is embedded to choose and grab a second widget from the vendor. Here, the widgets in the widget network can be dynamically maintained and updated by the vendor and can be created at a time after the first widget was grabbed by the user. If the user grabs the first widget over the web and embeds the widget into his/her own placement, the user is presumably interested in the widget and it is likely that the user may also be interested in other widgets created by the same vendor or in the same category of interest. | 11-19-2009 |

| 20100268829 | Selecting proxies from among autodiscovered proxies - Network devices include proxies and where multiple proxies are present on a network, they can probe to determine the existence of other proxies. Where more than two proxies are present and thus different proxy pairings are possible, the proxies are programmed to determine which proxies should form a proxy pair. Marked probe packets are used by proxies to discover each other and probing is done such a connection can be eventually formed even if some probe packets fail due to the marking Asymmetric routing can be detected and proxies configured for connection forwarding as necessary. | 10-21-2010 |
| 20110068899 | Method and System for Controlling Electronic Devices - A method and system for controlling electronic devices are disclosed. According to one embodiment, a computer-implemented method comprises accessing a physical location having location coordinates, defining a location name for the physical location, identifying a controllable device within the physical location, defining privacy settings for the physical location, wherein the privacy settings control access to the controllable device, and transmitting the location name, location coordinates, controllable device information, and privacy settings to a server. | 03-24-2011 |

| 20100299302 | TRAFFIC DISCOVERY - Discovering communication traffic in a computer network is useful to administrators of computer networks. Communication packets from a communication transaction on the network are read to determine a source computing device and to determine whether the communication transaction contains a data pattern match to one of a plurality of defined data patterns. If a match is made to an exact data pattern, the source computing device is associated with an application or service corresponding to that exact data pattern. If a match is made to a statistical data pattern, the source computing device is associated with an application or service corresponding to that statistical data pattern if a threshold number of data pattern matches have occurred for that statistical data pattern for the source computing device. | 11-25-2010 |

| 20100009325 | Psychological Testing or Teaching a Subject Using Subconscious Image Exposure - The present invention relates to a psychological method for testing or subconsciously teaching a subject. The method involves varying a subconscious exposure time period of a visual subconscious stimulus displayed to a subject in order to determine an effective subconscious exposure time period specific to the subject. To subconsciously test the subject, the method further uses a masking stimulus following the visual subconscious stimulus, both images having common image characteristics including brightness and contrast. The masking stimulus is made from scrambled subcomponents of the visual subconscious stimulus. The invention also describes an apparatus for psychological testing capable of varying a subconscious exposure time period of a visual subconscious stimulus displayed to a subject in order to determine an effective subconscious exposure time period specific to the subject. The apparatus also uses a mosaic generator to generate a masking stimulus from a visual subconscious stimulus. | 01-14-2010 |

| 20090262987 | Automatic face detection and identity masking in images, and applications thereof - A method and system of identity masking to obscure identities corresponding to face regions in an image is disclosed. A face detector is applied to detect a set of possible face regions in the image. Then an identity masker is used to process the detected face regions by identity masking techniques in order to obscure identities corresponding to the regions. For example, a detected face region can be blurred as if it is in motion by a motion blur algorithm, such that the blurred region can not be recognized as the original identity. Or the detected face region can be replaced by a substitute facial image by a face replacement algorithm to obscure the corresponding identity. | 10-22-2009 |
